Date: Mon, 05 Jun 2000 14:05:55 -0500 From: Tom Zillner <tzillner@WILS.WISC.EDU> To: PACS-L@LISTSERV.UH.EDU Reply-To: Public-Access Computer Systems Forum <PACS-L@LISTSERV.UH.EDU> Message-Id: <6E65BAF66F1@wils.wils.wisc.edu> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7BIT (Please excuse duplicate postings.) Hi All, I posted an announcement for WILSWorld 2000 about a month ago, and we have been gratified by the response. However, a fair number of spaces still remain. Also, to answer one frequently-asked question: you need not be a member of WILS to attend this conference for the $100 fee. The original announcement appears below: I'm pleased to announce WILSWorld 2000, to be held in Madison, Wisconsin on the UW-Madison campus July 24-25. (See our Web page at http://www.wils.wisc.edu/events/ww2k/) The highlight of this year's conference will be our keynote presentation by Roy Tennant. Roy is Digital Library Project Manager at the UC-Berkeley Library, and a prominent figure in the library world. In addition to his keynote, Roy will present a session on Virtual Reference. Another highlight in terms of nationally-known speakers is Eric Lease Morgan, creator of MyLibrary. Eric will present two sessions at WILSWorld, discussing MyLibrary from both a technical and philosophical viewpoint. Jerilyn Veldof of the University of Minnesota Libraries, a tremendously popular speaker at last year's WILSWorld, opens our second day with a plenary session entitled "Building User-Centered Library Web Sites on a Shoestring". I don't want to slight our Wisconsin speakers, all outstanding contributors who will discuss such "hot" topics as digitization, digital libraries, CORC, NetLibrary and e-books, and Identification/Authentication/Authorization. At $100 for the entire conference, this is truly a bargain. If you will be near Madison this summer, stop by. At this low cost and with our outstanding roster of speakers, it's also worth a special trip. Again, you can find all of the details at http://www.wils.wisc.edu/events/ww2k/ If you have questions or special needs feel free to contact me by e-mail or telephone. See you at WILSWorld 2000, truly a topical paradise!
